Some use pencil and paper to start their design process other's CAD or BIM Software.

There's a number of packages on the market from Sketchup to 3DS Max and a whole lot in between. Many things influence what one uses, operating system of computer, budget , collaboration with others etc. Autodesk products would properly have the largest share of the market.
